Renal Cell Carcinoma Associated with Neuroblastoma: A cancer of the kidney associated with a neuroblastoma (cancer of the nerve cells) which is a relatively common childhood cancer. The kidney cancer tends to develop in long-term survivors of this childhood cancer. It is unclear as to whether the treatment therapies for the neuroblastoma increase the risk of the kidney cancer or whether there is a susceptibility gene involved. Usually only one kidney is affected but it can occur in both kidneys. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Renal Cell Carcinoma Associated with Neuroblastoma is available below.
